This is an old missile storage box that I restored. I found it in a junkyard, and I thought it had some potential. Before, it had paint all over it, so I sanded it off. There was a possibility that their was lead in the paint, so I wore a mask. When I sanded the paint off, there were new things that I found, like all the words in the picture above! After I completed sanding, I covered the whole thing in polyurethane. You can tell the real difference between the before and after when you actually feel the difference. I sanded it a ton, so now it is really smooth.

Before

This is a before after of an accordion case that I restored. It is also kind of a before after for a new camera that I got. My pictures will be much better now. There are a lot of things that I changed. I rubbed the leather with shoe polish, cleaned the metal parts with tarnish remover, and I refurbished the inside with some new fabric.

Life is just a bowl of cherries; Don't make it serious; Life's too mysterious. You work, you save, you worry so, But you can't take your dough when you go, go, go. So keep repeating it's the berries; The strongest oak must fall. The sweet things in life To you were just loaned, So how can you lose what you've never owned? Life is just a bowl of cherries, So live and laugh at it all.
